Tbh kinda expected. Herlings had a similar injury years ago and said back then walking and running is a pain the ass. Herlings also needed like a year to get back to his speed. Jett is obviously an alien, but I don't think we will see him as ahead of everyone else compared to the last years. Good enough to still win the championship? We'll find out I guess.

No chance is Jett running watching that limp. Stationary bike. His cardio might be his biggest weakness right now

Besides AMart and JMart, are any of these guys really big on running anymore? Thought they got most of their cardio through cycling these days?

It makes sense...a lot easier on the body.  Especially if you're all fucked up from a life of moto.

Ye I think Herlings said he gave up on running completely only doing cycling if I remember correctly.

A lot of people with a talus injury still have problems and feel it decades later. It's a tough one. Hard to judge how he'll look on the bike for 30 min

Fingers crossed that this doesn't derail maybe the greatest rider we've ever seen. Rick Johnson, Roczen. Careers changed because of injuries

This is sadly going to be a blow out by Hunter. Stamp it. Kenny is choking already.

He was better in the whoops last weekend aswell but Hunter still put 13 seconds on him and was faster everywhere else. Hunter is just ridiculous in these conditions. Kenny needs to start in front of him for or at least be right there with him after the first corner imo

Every time I see the Monster girls, I think about that one race where the Monster girls was still out on the track and almost got hit. Amazing.

How dare you call yourself a Windham fan. Kevin does not approve of you. And neither do we.

Thought for sure Bennick would capitalize on getting a re-do from the red flat.

Also, sunlight on the track during LCQs seems just... wrong.

Sucks that he’s so far back, but it’s good to see Varize’s guys were able to get his bike fixed so quickly.

Bennick didn't even make up any time up on 4th place this LCQ. What a weird day from him, not making the last main gotta be rough. Did he even crash in the heat race?
